This was our first visit to the area and stayed for two nights. Checking in and car park was fine although we were a little late but rang ahead to let then know. Staff were fine, helpful and courteous, an easy four stars so far. Our room ( number1) was outside witch was not problem until it rained rather hard. The room itself was adequate and the bathroom large. Warning the bathroom tiles are very slippy when wet. The carpet was very dirty, well beyond what was acceptable, otherwise the room was adequate. We were disappointed in the room service because second morning we discovered that there was no shower gel. we had used the supply of one small bottle the previous morning and it hadn't been replaced. The hotel is in a good position with car parking . Can't comment on the evening meals as we didn't use the dinning room. Breakfast was fine and the service good. Main gripe would be that we were woke very early in the morning by the outer door being allowed to slam shut. This was repeated again and again was for over an hour by which time we were both wide awake. Overall it could have been better and should have been better. I would also add that the decor in the main building was very dark and dismal( mainly black everywhere) If we were to stay there again we would insist that the room would have to be in the main building to avoid the slamming door.

My son had his wedding here on Saturday. The function room was perfect for 130 people. The tables were not too close to each other. Food and service were great. Jane the co- ordinater is an asset to the company. From. 4 a.m in the morning she was at hand to ensure everything ran smoothly. Constantly checking that everything was as we wanted it. There was plenty of accomodation for guests and a few other places to stay locally. I would recommend the Emlyn hotel as a place to host your wedding or other functions.

We have stayed at this hotel a few times but not for quite a few years. We noticed a big difference since visiting last. They seem to cater more for weddings than just your average guest now. When looking through their Facebook page 9 posts out of 10 are advertising for weddings and we weren't even sure they were still taking bookings for regular guests. The restaurant is no longer open and it seemed very quiet there although we did stay on a Monday night in January so we put it down to that. We stayed in 1 of the rooms out of the hotel which was fantastic, very clean, spacious room with a huge bed, a double shower and a beautiful bath. We only have a shower at home so I made full use of a lovely relaxing bath. The lady who served breakfast was very nice. Chatty, happy and helpful,. Breakfast was delicious and you can tell they use decent products, no cheap rubbish

Attended a wedding here. The venue, catering and staff were all of a very high standard. The whole day went perfectly and I'd thoroughly recommend the Emlyn Hotel as a venue. However, several of the guests who stayed overnight, mentioned the poor quality of the beds. Ours was a sprung bed, very, very firm. I could feel the springs and had to sleep on the duvet. It was a shame, as otherwise the room was very comfortable.

Lovely hotel , for overnight stay. On arriving we were met by Josh on reception. Told us all we needed to now about stay. On inspection of our room no 1 we found a leak in radiator shower room . Spoke to Josh and he said he would relocate us to a new room . We were happy to stay in room and he said house keeping would solve issue next day. Josh provided us with information on pubs shops and restaurants very polite service. Breakfast was a good choice, lovely staff and very friendly. Definitely stop over again when next in this area

I visited this hotel today with a friend who was taking photos for a wedding, the place is lovely with some quaint little cozy seating areas, the staff are extremely helpful and really pleasant. Julie the wedding organiser is so professional and her attention to detail is second to none. The venue was absolutely gorgeous, the area where the wedding ceremony took place was so pretty and the foyer leading to it was lovely. The staff were on hand all the time helping guests and directing them to where they needed to be, It had beautiful well kept gardens perfect for wedding photos with lots of little different areas for different arrangements of photos for small or larger weddings. A lovely seating area at the top looking down on well kept, beautiful gardens. Once the photos were taken it was back into the main room for the wedding breakfast Wow what a transformation it looking stunning with beautiful arranged tables. We were not actual guest but we were offered food from Julie which was so nice she didn’t have to do that, the food was WOW absolutely delicious and we sent clean plates back and my friend said if I was at home I would be licking this plate I totally agree. Well done to all the young staff you were so professional and I was impressed that’s every table was serves like a military operation amazing to see , Well done all I would 100% recommend this place .

My sister got married at the Emlyn hotel yesterday and what can I say. The staff were absolutely fantastic, especially Julie who couldn't do enough for us and looked after our two daughters well. She was always about and checking if there was anything we needed. The place was spotless and well looked after. Food was absolutely divine and everyone spoke highly of the venue, food and staff. Thank you so much for a fabulous day. We look forward to coming back one day again. Diolch 😁
